Proposed new standard for analysis of starch in paper or paperboard

Print Print this article | Send to Colleague


A proposal has been made for a new standard test method: "Starch in paper or paperboard." This new standard would replace the withdrawn standards T 531 "Starch consumption in corrugated board (enzymatic/gravimetric method)" and T 532 "Starch consumption in corrugated board (enzymatic/colorimetric method)."


The scope of the method is: This standard test method provides the procedure for the analysis of starch content in paper or paperboard, either as an internal or sizing additive or as a component of starch adhesive in lamination or corrugated board.


A Standard-Specific Interest Group (SSIG) must be formed for this proposal. Any individuals who are interested in this Standard may join the SSIG to receive ballots when this method is ready for vote. If you would like to join the SSIG for this project, please notify the Standards Department at standards@tappi.org or by fax at +1-770-446-6947 no later than February 18, 2013.
